The smartness of Solnet’s installations comprises sensors, protective layers and automatics as well as optimisation, management and surveillance features provided as cloud services.
”Our investment in Solnet promotes both Tesi’s ‘Renewable energy and energy efficiency’ impact theme as well as sustainable development goals. It also supports the pursuit for carbon neutrality and energy self-sufficiency in Finland and Europe. We want to be on board in further accelerating Solnet’s strong growth and internationalisation in the European key markets,” says Heli Kerminen, Investment Director at Tesi.
